Haiku OS runs on M1 Macs now
Haiku OS has successfully been ported to run on M1 Macs. This implementation operates on bare metal without the use of a virtual machine, allowing for direct booting from USB. While there are still issues to resolve, such as a broken USB, all eight cores are operational and the system boots to a desktop environment.
